Reviews

We are also interested in book reviews and review essays. These submissions should follow the same formatting guidelines above and in The WCJ style sheet. Book reviews should be approximately 2,000 words; review essays which address multiple works should be no more than 6,000 words. Though reviewed books need not address writing centers exclusively, reviews of such works should make explicit connections with writing center studies and should address what the reviewed texts contribute to theory and practice of tutoring, writing center administration, and/or working with writers. The WCJ publishes book reviews that move beyond summary or promotion; writers should situate reviewed books in broader conversations in the field and should include critique of the reviewed works as warranted.
